This would indicate that at some point the CTS server reported a Position of 0 for the particular Symbol and Trade Account. Anytime there is a Position update from the server, there is a line in the Trade Activity log for this.

However, this is what we are seeing:

Order  2018-01-12 11:28:30.246  CL.20180200.CME_NY  Updated Internal Position Quantity to -1. Previous: 0                        Unspecified            
Order  2018-01-12 11:28:30.248  CL.20180200.CME_NY  Updated Service Position Quantity to -1                        Unspecified            
    
Order  2018-01-12 14:05:17.444    Disconnected from server  None                      Unspecified  
  
So at 2018-01-12 14:05:17.444  when apparently you closed Sierra Chart, there was a Position reported of -1 for CL.20180200.CME_NY. This is what you should have seen.
